Lisa Edelstein Quotes

When you play the same character for a long time, you have a shorthand. You get onto the set, you put on your outfit and two-thirds of your work is done because you’ve built on that work for so many years Picture Quote #1

I’m obsessed with broccoli, carrots, celery, string beans, snap peas, black kale, brussels sprouts, cabbage - I could go on! They used to call me ‘rabbit’ when I was a kid. I hate mushrooms, though. I apologize to fungi lovers, but this way, there’s more for you! Picture Quote #1

Aging on camera is just very hard. I love my age. I feel good about myself but high definition television is not kind. You don’t even look like yourself in high-def. It just makes every little line on your face more exaggerated so it ends up aging you. It’s like you’re watching yourself seven years older Picture Quote #1

By learning about my body and making small, subtle changes, I find out what I enjoy and what is effective. I’m always finessing: adjusting my diet and my workouts. You have to figure out which exercises are fun and interesting and stimulate your brain - or else you’ll never keep at them Picture Quote #1

Exercise helps me with stress. It changes your brain chemistry. I turn to Ashtanga yoga when I feel the need to relax. I love it, but it’s not right for everybody. It’s taught to you a little bit at a time, according to your body type and your strength. That keeps things challenging Picture Quote #1

For me, just being how old I am, I know I don’t want to be a single mom. I really would rather make it a two-person job. But I’ve also come to terms with not being a mother at all. I’m actually really good with either direction that my life can take as being a valid experience Picture Quote #1

I always think, medically... you really have to be your advocate. You have to be able to back up everything that you’re feeling with some information and protect yourself through the world of hospitals and doctors’ offices, so the more information the better Picture Quote #1

It’s important to be gentle about my routines. I’ve learned that the hard way. When I’m really stressed out, I can take it out on my body and hurt myself. Sometimes I need to be as loving and soft with myself as possible. I’ve had to learn how to pay attention. It’s a kind of mind-set Picture Quote #1

The roles that men and women play are no longer the standard traditional roles of way back when but are those of two very individual people living their lives. I think it’s been a hard transition in society - just take a look at the divorce rate - to figure out what that means now. How do you resolve that? Picture Quote #1

There are so many good roles for women out there, I don’t understand it when people say the role choices are fewer as you get older. I find the opposite to be true - there are less good roles out there for the hot 20-year-olds because the normal girl parts just aren’t interesting Picture Quote #1

I do think that people get really emotionally involved in the TV shows that they love and I think that is fantastic. Of course they are going to have opinions. The other thing is that people project onto their television shows. They see a character and layer on many traits that are actually their own or their idea of what that character is Picture Quote #1

Decades ago, women suffered through horrifying back-alley abortions. Or, they used dangerous methods when they had no other recourse. So when the Republican Party launched an all-out assault on women’s health, pushing bills to limit access to vital services, we had to ask: Why is the GOP trying to send women back... to the back alley? Picture Quote #1

I’ve always thrown myself into different kinds of experiences, sometimes into really bad things. But, you grow up. You become more of a woman and you know yourself. I think knowing yourself is a wonderful thing especially when you’re in your 40s and you’re kind of in your skin. Life is not so confusing anymore Picture Quote #1

I think writers like to see how people bring their words to life, and it’s always surprising. Always, no matter what, whether it’s good or bad, it’s always surprising because a whole human being is coming to that piece of writing Picture Quote #1

Well, I don’t think characters change. I think they become more revealed. I don’t think you really can change a character on a show Picture Quote #1

You can’t do things unexpected in life if you’re not willing to take a risk, and it’s easier to risk your own life than it is for your parent to watch you take risks. It’s very, very hard for parents to see children doing things that aren’t a solid path. I’ve been through that Picture Quote #1

There are some great shows that come and go really fast, either because the network doesn’t give them a chance or they just don’t grab on to the psyche of the country quickly enough Picture Quote #1

Well first of all, I think the phrase ‘jump the shark’ has jumped the shark. I read it in every article and I think that when Fonzie actually jumped the shark, ‘Happy Days’ was on the air for another five years Picture Quote #1

Well, I don’t think just because people are in a relationship that they’re happy. I don’t think relationships necessarily make people happy. You just are happy or you’re not happy Picture Quote #1

The hardest part about being vegan is shoes. I mean, really, that’s the only difficult part, finding shoes that don’t have leather on them Picture Quote #1

I like adventures and people who live with the volume on high Picture Quote #1

I think it’s really important for celebrities to use their power of money and fame to get their voices out there. It’s funny to me that we’re expected to keep quiet just because of who we are. Why do I lose my right to speak my mind because I’m famous? Picture Quote #1

There needs to be passion behind what you’re doing or it’s not worth it Picture Quote #1

Everybody in the world has a different reason for wishing they could say things that most people know not to say Picture Quote #1

It’s always weird to shoot when you’re really basically not wearing anything Picture Quote #1

Well, I don’t think characters change. I think they become more revealed. I don’t think you really can change a character on a show Picture Quote #1

After much consideration, I am moving onward with a combination of disappointment at leaving behind a character I have loved playing for seven years and excitement of the new opportunities in acting and producing that lie ahead Picture Quote #1

My opinion’s no more important than anyone else’s. It’s just that I have the ability to have access to more ears when I speak because of my job Picture Quote #1

I don’t think that anyone can prepare for raising a child. I think it’s one of those jobs that is far more overwhelming than you could ever expect and far more satisfying than you can ever expect Picture Quote #1
